People.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Tbe Secre-
tary of State has received from Mr.. Hath
away, United States Consul at Nice, q
dispatch dated the Sd inst, containing an
account of the earthquake which occurred
at that city on the 23d OF February last.
Hathaway states that the phenomena were
most distinctly perceived at three minutes
to 6 o'clock in the morning. The vibra-
tiOns were vertical, longitudinal and
transversal, and of not less than
thirty seconds in duration. The massive
stone buildings of the city were then
moved, lifted and shaken, as it seemed 10
their occupants, like ships at sea OF trees
struck by tempestuous wind. The in
habitants at the time were wearily sleep
ing after the excitement and festivities Of
the carnival. The first shock was fol-
lowed by another of somewhat lessened
intensity, undulating from east to west,
and accompanied by noise in the
air like the blowing of the mistral.
The sound OF falling walls and
the terrified voices OF the people
mingled in alarm. The sky became illu-
mined with red glimmering light, appar
emily electrical in quality and unusual at
dawn. The entire population, half cloth
ed, were in the streets Many were quiet,
firm and courageous, Others were trem-
bling and unnerved. At the city ut five
minutes past eight O'Clock 4. IN third
shock was felt more intense than the
preceding ones, which cOnsumma-
ted the excitement. The railway
station became crowded with fugitves,
looking for escape Ia Marseilles and Paris
some sought the more open streets and
the public squares; few obtained car
riages for shelter and some less fearful,
remained in the easements of their dwell
ing or hotels. The weather was warm
and cloudleSs Happily but one life was
lost, as the immediate result of this dis

PArCHOGUE, l.. l., March 26.-The
steamer Scotia pounded heavily during the
night and worked over the outer har and
is now lying between the outer and inner

FEDERAL FINANCES.
Secretary Fairchiid Ready To Relieve An
Stringeney In the Money Market

Secretary Fairchild Ready To Relieve Any
stringency In the Money Market.
NEW YORK, March 26.-The Mail and
Express says that .'Mr. Isador wormser, Of
the banking firm of l. x s. Wormser, went
to Washington on business at the close Of
the week, and during his stay called upon
some of the highest officials of the Govern
ment As the interest in the money ques-
ton at this and other leading points, and
the agitation abont stringeDey had reached
the national capital, his opinion on the
situation was naturally sought. Coming
fresh from that great financial center,
Mr.. Worsmer was requested to present
his views in person TO Acting Secretary Of
the Treasury Fairchild, with whom con-
ference was readily had. The banker
plainly told the Secretary that, while We
out serious trouble, the contraction Of ns-
tional hank notes, growing out of the call
ing in of the 3 per cents, and the failure
of Congress to pass certain appropriation
bills and to adopt other necessary measures
to release the surplus in the Treasury,
would undoubtedly lead to a crisis in the
fall unless the department should come TO
the relief of the market, failing in which
a special session of Congress would have
to be called. Mr.. Fairchild answered, in
substance, that he possessed ample au-
thority to relieve any money pressure
that may arise, and that he would use his
powers in case OF stringency. He went on
to say that he was depositing receipts
from internal revenue and the general fee
fund in the designated nstional-bank de-
positories, and, in reply TO an interroga-
ton as to the probable extent OF such de-
posits stated that they might reach Sl5,-
O0O, 900, but, if it was absolutely necessary,
he could make them three times that
amount. The banker then dilated upon
the scarcity of Government bonds abroad,
and spoke of the difficulty of obtaining n
round lot in London, whereupon the Sec
retary remarked that the national banks
held large amounts of these bonds. All
these utterances, coming from 30 high u
source, are of prime importance just now rs
foreshadowing the policy of the Govern
ment on the money question.

The River Falling at Bismarck, but Gorged

BISMARCK, OAK, March 26.-The river
is falling rapidly and workmen have been
engaged to-day in repairing the Northern
Pacific bridge. No trains can run over
the bridge before Monday, but
transfer is being satisfactorily made
by boats. A citizen of Nc
Lean county brings intelligence that
the gorge seven miles below WaShburne is
six miles wide and the water covers the
prairie tor miles. If this is true then the
worst has not come, and the present fall in
the river here is simply the result of the
upper gorge. The Sibley island gorge is
firm. Snow has been falling for fifteen
hours and this will greatly increase the
volume Of water.
YANKTON, OAK, March 2G.-The Mis-
souri, river is still rising here and the
water is backed in 10 the James river, four
miles east. Reports say it is nearly on
level with the bridge. The Milwaukee
road track at Burbank, about forty miles
east of the Sioux City and Dakota branch,
is washed out, and trains are abandoned,
passengers being brought via Marion and
Scotland. The water is thought 10 be at
its height now, and no serious damage is
apprehended, rs the ice is all out.
